Summary:
Chiloquin, Oregon is home to a single public high school, Chiloquin High School, a small rural school serving grades 7 through 12 with about 180 students in the Klamath County School District. Because it is the only high school in the city, there are no other local schools to compare it with; the most useful comparisons are between its middle grades and high school grades, and against district and state averages. Nearly all students (90.56%) qualify for free or reduced lunch, and the school spends $25,064 per student with a 12.8-to-1 student-teacher ratio.
The school's strongest results come in the upper grades and at graduation. Its graduation rate of 89.7% is above the district's 86.7% and well above Oregon's 83.0%. Eleventh graders scored 48% proficient in science — 14.2 points above the state — and 25% in math, also above both the district and the state. In the most recent year the school ranked in the 64th percentile of Oregon high schools (3 stars), up from the 47th percentile the year before, though still below its 89th-percentile standing two years earlier.
Two issues stand out. First, chronic absenteeism is 46.3%, far above the district's 31.0% and the state's 33.5% — the largest gap in the data. Second, middle-grade achievement is weak and pulls down the school-wide numbers: 7th-grade math is under 5% proficient, 8th-grade ELA is 15.2%, and 8th-grade math is 9.1%. Across all grades, only 11.8% of students are proficient in math (state: 32.9%) and 26.7% in English language arts (state: 43.8%), while science, at 27.6%, sits close to both the district and state. Parents should read the school-wide scores alongside its strong graduation and 11th-grade math and science results, and note that test scores come from 2025–2026 while graduation, attendance, lunch, and spending figures are from 2024–2025.
